Furminieux,
95 Linux_1
eth0 ----------- eth0 eth1 ----------- existing local
network
192.168.2.2 192.168.2.1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
192.168.2.0 is your local network
2 your 95 machine on subnet 192.168.2.0
1 your server on subnet 192.168.2.0
You can have several machines and subnets off 192.168.2.0 with
internal network numbers that get to the net through Linux_1 with
masquerading.
You could get permission for setting up the 95 side of things and
get a useable IP from the existing local net administrator. If
that's not possible and you only have one number then use
masquerading. See the HOWTO's and save time - there is one
specific to masquerading.

Subject: proxy cache server
Date: Sun, 28 Feb 1999 14:49:31 GMT
Good morning(?),
I am looking to set up a suqid proxy server on linux, but I am confused
about something. Multiple documents I have read state that when an
internal client requests an uncached page, the request goes out over the
'net from the proxy and thus only the proxy's address is seen
externally. Hmmm.
I do not wish to allow any access from the internal clients to outside
resources other than http/ftp/realaudio documents. Thus, I have three
questions:
1. If the first paragraph is correct, is there any need to use
IP masquerading in addition to the proxy (or, what kernel
options do I need to set)?
2. Since I use cable internet service, and I set up the internal
clients' browsers to connect via my squid proxy, how do I
set up the squid proxy to connect via the ISP's proxy (this
is the only parent proxy to which it will connect)?
3. Am I just making life difficult for myself?
Thanks for being patient during this ongoing learning process.

Most likely you don't have any nfs server installed and configured.
The portmap service is also required, as this is the service that will
register all the nfs services (listening on port 111).

The nis or nisplus client will query the portmap service on port 111 for
the port servicing the nis or nisplus requests.
Thus, whenever you look up for example a user in the password file, you
first look into the nsswtch file and see there that you realy should
ask nisplus first. Then your program sends a question to the portmap
program at port 111 asking for the port number of the nisplus server,
and using this information it now asks the nisplus server to look up
the user name in the nisplus database.

Francisco,
Look at the man for smbpasswd. Also verify the encryption
side of smb in cmb.conf. In the long haul it may be better to
change the Linux side as the changing the MS side will probably
cause other MS things to go wrong.
Have you mapped the drives on the MS side? It sound like they
are mapped but not on line at the moment. Can you click on my
computer and have a drive tag for the smb drive? Does it have a
red x at its bottom?
Have you added the drives in smb.conf like was done for the
printer? Are they public?
What is security and what is encrypt passwords?
What is the exact operation you do to get access on the MS
side? What is the exact error message?

What is your route? What is the netmask. What are some of the

Yeah she runs her own nameserver for her domain, but we are both pretty
new to this stuff.
We haven't tried adding a zone yet. The problem I have is this.
If someone in webland pings my static IP then my ISP (same as hers) knows
to route the packets directly to my machine, right. Now instead lets say
someone pings einstein.herdomain.com, HOW does my ISP know to route the
packets to me. Hmmm... yeah... I think you're right, my ISP would then
route packets to her b/c she has that domain. She would look in her
zone/hosts file and then bammo, hopefully they end up getting to me.
Hmmm.. seems I answered my own question..... oh well
We'll give it a shot.. thanks a million

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Generic info for RH 5.2. Assumption: you installed PPP.
===================================================================
RH puts ppp scripts in /usr/doc/ppp-2.3.5
Copy ppp-on, ppp-on-dialer, options to /etc/ppp.
Copy /dev/null into options.
===================================================================
Modify ppp-on by editing the following:
TELEPHONE, ACCOUNT, PASSWORD
==================================================================
For exec command. put in correct device probably
cua1 (for RH5.2) and modem speed
===================================================================
Edit /etc/resolv.conf and put in ISP nameserver given you by your
ISP.
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
You usually get two from your isp.
====================================================================
execute ppp-on & and monitor logs with
tail -f /var/log/messages.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
OR:
Control Pannel: Modem configuration. Select
correct device. (used in ppp-on script)
===================================================================
Control Pannel: Network Configurator: Routing: Defaults blank
PPP0 will use this so needs a blank here.
===================================================================
Network Configurator: Names: insert ISP
nameserver addresses.
===================================================================
System Configurator: PPP/SLIP/PLIP: Configurations, Add
Fill in Hardware, Communication. Assumes PAP not
required - If things do not work check with ISP.
==================================================================
Save quit. Verify /etc/resolv.conf has your ISP
addresses.
==================================================================
The linuxconf sets up most things but does not
setup the ppp-on script - that must be done by hand.
==================================================================
Testing:
cd /etc/ppp
execute ppp-on
Ping locally between your network machines to insure your ok.
Ping some net address by ip number like 10.220.10.120. Once ppp
is connected.
Verify your name server working, ping boston.com or do an
nslookup microsoft.com
When not dialed in ping someother box locally by name
to insure yor local resolution is working say if
done by the /etc/hosts and /etc/lmhosts.

As far as I remember you will be asked which services you want to enable
during install. These are inetd, cron, sendmail, kerneld, syslogd,
and so on. If you didn't enable networking at this stage, then the
link to /etc/rc.d/rc3.d won't be created.
The command '/sbin/chkconfig --add network' should add this symbolic

The probably better way is to add following lines to /etc/conf.modules:
alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp
alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate # From original RFC draft
alias ppp-compress-26 ppp_deflate # Final standard per ppp-2.3.4

This way the modules can be loaded on demand and unload if they are no
